What is an Ambassador?

A Mozambikes Ambassador is someone who wants to make a difference in the lives of others by HELPING our cause. Rural communities in Africa have a daily struggle, they need our support and a bicycle would have a tremendous impact on their lives and livelihood. Mozambikes Ambassadors help us spread the word about the power of bicycles to change lives in Mozambique, one bicycle at a time. Our Ambassadors program offers a platform for you to help raising funds to donate bicycles to people living on less than $1 per day.

Ambassadors can raise money by organizing events (live or virtual/digital), for example by dedicating their birthdays, running a marathon or a cycling race, organizing a ‘spin for charity’ class at their gym, starting a fund in honor of a loved one, and more.

Why should I join?

You can truly make a difference in the lives of people in Mozambique! We really need the support of those of us who recognize the importance of having a bicycle for the people who cannot afford it themselves. Together we can do our best to make this happen, One Bicycle At A Time.

The Mozambikes Ambassadors program gives you some great ideas to fundraise for people who desperately need wheels to change and improve their quality of life. We have selected an easy platform for you to initiate and share fundraising activities for this good cause to make it as easy as possible. But fundraising is not all there is. We also greatly value Ambassadors who contribute their time, expertise and network helping to get our message across.

How can I get started?

The first step is to set up your Mozambikes Fundraising account, which will help track your progress, involve your friends and collect donations.

Miguel is a huge fan of Mozambikes since the beginning, when Miguel in one of his bicycle trips around the world passed through Mozambique. He documents his travels on his blog with a series of extraordinary photos, which he then compiles onto a calendar that he sales and profits go to the Mozambikes cause.
